#SleepAwarenessWeek While so much has been done in the Western context, I am curious about how we can attend to #sleephealth in other social context. Here, Brigitte Steger brings us insights into sleep vulnerability in Japanese tsunami shelters.

The Intercultural Dialogue theme of @the_polyphony invites guests from different cultural & national backgrounds to critically examine the centrality of #MedHum in the UK and North America. We hope to introduce concepts and narratives about #MedHum in under-represented cultures.
What a rewarding year at @the_polyphony! I have been inspired by our amazing contributors and learned so much from my colleagues about editing & communication & intercultural collaboration. Excited for another year of great adventures!
I passed my viva two weeks ago and received the award of PhD degree today! Four years exploring embodied life-writing via the lenses of #medhum, #intermediality, and the art of conversation, it is finally official! Extremely proud of myself and grateful!
